English Description
Every organization has people who keep things humming: IT professionals. Without them, everything would quickly grind to a halt. They are essential, yet often taken for granted. When things are working, no one thinks about them. When there’s a glitch, that’s when they’re front and center on everyone’s radar.
These are the very people that enable all the other people in their companies to work productively. Faced with impossible deadlines and ridiculous budgets, they are charged with keeping their companies running efficiently and securely.
This campaign is designed to let the IT professionals know they have an ally.
CDW.
We get what they’re up against. We get the frustration and the insane hours and the frantic pace and the panic calls.
We also get how to help, products, to solutions, big stuff to the teeniest details.
We get technology.
We get IT people.
We get it.
This campaign, through print, internal communications, tv and internet videos, is designed to change the way IT professionals think of CDW. Instead of just another vendor, CDW is in the trenches with them.
They are allies. Partners. More than just order-takers. CDW can help design and build entire network architectures.
